Arsenal scored 6 times on the route to the League Cup final. The lowest scorers to ever reach a League Cup final

but it was our mental strength and our desire to do well that got us there, we were very high on the hunger index for these matchesā€¦never discount this!

When was the last time we reached the end of January and our leading scorer hasnā€™t even hit double figures in all comps ?

When you consider, two of our five leading goal scorers this season have been sold, and Welbeck and Giroud are usually on the bench players, then the fact Lacazette has still only scored nine is not great.

Still, Iā€™m sure Wenger is doing every thing he can to get a proper striker :facepalm:

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (28) is the oldest offensive player Arsene Wenger has signed since Davor Suker in 1999.

Hopefully he works out better than the Croatian did for us.

Arsenal have never lost a PL game at The Emirates during the month of February.

always a first time for everything. Unfortunately we have been breaking some terrible records this season.

Weā€™ve scored 51 goals and a ridiculous 36 of them at home, just 15 away.

Away weā€™ve conceded more than Watford, Brighton, West Brom, Southampton, Swansea and Bournemouth :grimacing:

I donā€™t want to speak for Aubameyang since he considers himself as Gabonese I guess, but Aubameyang is European. He is born and raised in France (played for France U-21) and I think to have read he has/had the Spanish nationality. The distinction might not be meant with bad intentions, but it does give a little bit of bad taste in my mouth as a person of color myself.

We lost 9 away games in that 05/06 season, pretty sure that was ā€˜Lasagna-gateā€™ as well right? Where West Ham bailed us out. In a season where man city wasnā€™t a thing. Weā€™ll end up having a worse League season than 05/06 I think

9 league games without a clean sheet is our longest run in 16 years.

Anyone got the stats of our record away from home vs the current top 5 in the last 5 or 6 years ?
